This story has been developing in the past our soul. Is being granted | :00:17. | :00:31. | |
merrily released by a parole board after serving nine of the 33 year | :00:32. | :00:40. | |
jail sentence for armed robbery. They have shut them the largest | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
marketplace on the dark web. Here is the US Attorney General. This is the | :00:45. | :00:52. | |
largest dark market web takedown in world history. That is Jeff | :00:53. | :00:57. | |
Sessions, a loyalist to Donald Trump, but today the president | :00:58. | :01:02. | |
attacked him for his decision to stand down from any Russia | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
investigations. A general strike in Venezuela, the | :01:07. | :01:12. | |
latest effort to oust the government, and a new study suggests | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
main things we can all do to decrease the chances of dementia. | :01:18. | :01:34. | |
The second round of Brexit talks wrapped up today and we will hear | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
from both sides. First of all the UK. | :01:40. | :01:46. | |
All in all, the second round of negotiations have given us much to | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
be positive about and also outlined the need for both sides to | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
demonstrate a dynamic and flexible approach to how we approach these | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
challenges. We have conducted this at peace. To coin a phrase, the | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
clock is ticking. Mr Barnier said that there | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
was a 'fundamental divergence' We require this clarification on the | :02:09. | :02:26. | |
financial settlement, oils and citizens rights and Ireland. And on | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
the other separation issues. So let's try and see what has changed | :02:34. | :02:34. | |
since the beginning of the week. The two sides still need | :02:35. | :02:36. | |
to resolve the issues of whether or not the UK has to pay | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
an exit bill, and how much that might be, citizens' rights and how | :02:39. | :02:42. | |
they'll be adjudicated, as well as issues around the border | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
between Northern Ireland The Spectator magazine | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
calls this a stalemate. Opinions differ on | :02:47. | :02:59. | |
whose fault this is. This op ed in the Times blames | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
the EU side 'EU's Barnier and Verhofstadt are out | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
to punish Britain. This | :03:08. | :03:17. | |
is a Ben Jennings cartoon his take is that the British | :03:18. | :03:18. | |
are incompetent compared to the EU. Our Europe editor's written a piece | :03:19. | :03:26. | |
about Michel Barnier by the way, if you want to find out | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
more about him. I can strongly recommend this, all | :03:30. | :03:38. | |
about him and the approach he is bringing to these Brexit | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
negotiations. She is in Brussels and hear the sad assessment. The last | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
time the men met it was pretty much a getting to know you session is | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
this week was the first week where the working group sat down and tried | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
to tackle some of those difficult issue is. Modest progress. Both | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
sides managed to come up with a joint paper on citizens rights, | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
colour-coded to show further was agreement and disagreement and we | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
have too underlined the fact there will be lots of these negotiating | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
sessions and we can't expect all of them to end in harmony. Some big | :04:13. | :04:20. | |
sticking points. The European Court of Justice, the court the EU has to | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
safeguard its laws, so for example Brussels is seeing when it comes to | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
the rights of EU citizens, that court still has to have jurisdiction | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
and the UK court says absolutely not. It is hard to see how they meet | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
on that point but what you have in both sides are two men who want a | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
deal and who know that they need a deal and they will work to get one. | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
I have been reading the article you wrote about Michel Barnier. You | :04:51. | :05:00. | |
quote one magazine calling it Juncker's revenge. That was very | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
much when he was nominated for this role because he has worn many courts | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
before in the French government and then the European Commission. He was | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
the Commissioner for the European single market and he clashed with | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
the City of London. He wanted to cap bankers bonuses and they called him | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
the most dangerous man in Europe. What has been interesting since he | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
has taken this job that has been very little criticism of him in the | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
UK or amongst EU countries and honestly speaking they are very | :05:38. | :05:39. | |
critical of what happens in Brussels. He is seen as a serious | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
negotiator than somebody who wants to find compromise. A bit arrogant | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
and that is something David Davis is accused of. They have some kind of | :05:50. | :05:55. | |
chemistry. They worked together before in previous years and they | :05:56. | :05:58. | |
are going to need to use that chemistry to get over lots of big | :05:59. | :06:04. | |
bumps in the road. Let's not forget, we are just in phase one of these | :06:05. | :06:10. | |
negotiations which is when they work out the divorce issues like the | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
so-called exit Bell where the United Kingdom will have to pay its | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
financial liabilities that the leaves, but the UK desperately wants | :06:21. | :06:23. | |
to move to stage two when it talks about the future with the EU which | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
is its biggest trading partner, so it is anxious to get past these | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
details to move on stage two. Something curious about this process | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
and that every few steps of the way we are publicly told how it is going | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
and it is consumed in all these different arenas which in turn | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
reflects back on what happens in Brussels and makes it horribly | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
complicated? You can see that David Davis is very aware that he has a | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
big domestic audience for whatever he says year, never mind with the EU | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
negotiators when it comes to Brexit. When we look at Michel Barnier and | :07:01. | :07:07. | |
what he can or cannot do, it is important to remember his hands are | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
tied because he is told very clearly by the other countries what he can | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
and cannot do. So he gets his instructions on them and has to | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
report back to them and also needs the European Parliament on site. | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
This is a very political process whereas normally trade agreements | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
between the EU and other countries is left to the technocrats and the | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
lawyers but there are a lot of politicians involved and that is why | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
it is so complicated. For more information you know where to go. | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
Let's talk about some important research on dementia that has come | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
out. A third of dementia cases could be prevented if people looked after | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
their brain. A study has come out with nine risk factors for dementia. | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
Some of them relate to physical health like diabetes and physical | :08:08. | :08:12. | |
inactivity. That is also the level of education and social isolation as | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
factors. We are told as well that 47 million people in the world | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
unaffected by dementia now but over the next few years around 131 | :08:22. | :08:30. | |
million could be affected by 2050. The proportion of sufferers in low | :08:31. | :08:33. | |
and middle income countries is expected to go up. I am told know | :08:34. | :08:44. | |
what is seen as being new in this report. This is a report by the | :08:45. | :08:47. | |
Lancet commission and it is actually very important and summarises the | :08:48. | :08:55. | |
body of evidence on multiple aspects of dementia research and clear, and | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
probably one of the most important things is about dementia prevention. | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
It has been an accumulating field in the space of the last 10-15 years, | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
accumulating research. The report goes at it in a very systematic way | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
to tell us about what other risk factors throughout life for | :09:18. | :09:20. | |
Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Such things as Italy | :09:21. | :09:25. | |
childhood education, midlife factors such as hypertension and obesity and | :09:26. | :09:32. | |
lately factors such as diabetes and exercise, which is actually | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
throughout life. Smoking and other risk factors. We have ranked them | :09:38. | :09:40. | |
together as they scorer and tell us which risk factors might have the | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
most important impact on preventing dementia. The commission also | :09:45. | :09:51. | |
summarises some of the data on the strength of its evidence in terms of | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
how likely is it that we really can prevent dementia, and they conclude | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
that about 35% of all dementia cases could be prevented with proper | :10:01. | :10:07. | |
intervention and treatment. Along the lines of the things we have just | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
discussed. Is it your hope that the study may influence how governments | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
spend their money? Although there has been a tremendous amount of | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
research on prevention of dementia, it hasn't really been | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
institutionalised and accepted by national bodies, for example, and | :10:28. | :10:32. | |
being able to have the strength of evidence for public health messages. | :10:33. | :10:39. | |
The was recently a study published in a medical Journal actually | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
concluded that risk and rate of dementia is actually going down even | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
though the number of cases is going up, because the population is | :10:48. | :10:51. | |
ageing. The actual rate at a particular age is going down, and | :10:52. | :10:55. | |
this has been associated with improvements in education and | :10:56. | :10:57. | |
lifestyle over the last 30 years or so. That is actually evidence that | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
dementia prevention can be an achievable goal. There are going to | :11:03. | :11:08. | |
be people watching this and to view all over the world thinking what are | :11:09. | :11:12. | |
the most important things for me to do to try to avoid having dementia | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
in later life? What would you say to them? I think if they had in midlife | :11:17. | :11:24. | |
which is actually the time that Alzheimer's disease starts, that the | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
most important thing is to not be sedentary, to have lifelong | :11:29. | :11:36. | |
exercise. Don't be alone, remain occupationally and socially involved | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
throughout life. Considered lifelong learning, build your brain | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
throughout life. When people have cognitive reserve the better able be | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
resilient against old-age brain diseases like Alzheimer's and | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
vascular dementia. If you have hypertension and diabetes, make sure | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
you teach those comorbidities because they are also risk factor | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
this land effect of drugs. Some are better than others. For example, | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
there is evidence that some hypertensives have neuroprotective | :12:11. | :12:12. | |
effects and our organisation is conducting studies of these protect | :12:13. | :12:21. | |
your anti-attempts ofs and diabetic agents. That is the future of how we | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
are going to use treatments for these medical comorbidities to | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
prevent dementia in future. But take care of yourself and lead a heart | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
healthy lifestyle and in late life and throughout life, don't smoke, | :12:34. | :12:39. | |
avoid obesity, eat a Mediterranean diet and live a healthy lifestyle. | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
Those of the most important thing is that people can do. We typically | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
think of those things as protecting our heart but they are just as | :12:48. | :12:49. | |
effective in protecting our brains. Thank you. Time for sport and they | :12:50. | :12:56. | |
begin with the G. First day of the open has gone very well for the | :12:57. | :12:58. | |
Americans including Jordan Spieth. It is the one everyone wants to win. | :12:59. | :13:07. | |
The oldest major, the Open Championship, but with the biggest | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
prize comes the biggest challenge. Not for American Charley Hoffman. He | :13:14. | :13:22. | |
had just about the best start. An eagle on the first. In typically | :13:23. | :13:26. | |
British conditions it was Englishman Ian Poulter who set the early pace | :13:27. | :13:34. | |
with his best start to a major. Henrik Stenson said some of the best | :13:35. | :13:37. | |
golf the Open Championship as seen on his way to lifting the Claret Jug | :13:38. | :13:43. | |
but as defending champion it was a modest first round. Despite this on | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
the seventh he finished one under par. The first day was all about the | :13:47. | :13:53. | |
Americans, Jordan Spieth leading from the front. After winning | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
back-to-back majors in 2015 he hasn't hit the same heights since, | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
but he was back on song at Royal Birkdale especially on the greens. | :14:04. | :14:10. | |
And by lunchtime on the one at five under without dropping a shot, | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
Jordan Spieth was the man to catch. Newly crowned US Open champion | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
Brooks Koepka wasn't far behind, picking his way out of trouble and | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
then to be sheared off the lead on five under. Enter the afternoon as | :14:25. | :14:30. | |
the weather improved so did the golf. Matt Kuchar racing out of the | :14:31. | :14:36. | |
blocks, four under after the first six, another American sharing the | :14:37. | :14:42. | |
lead. 2014 champion Rory McIlroy was peered with world number one Dustin | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
Johnson. A dream for fans but it turned into a nightmare for Rory | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
McIlroy. A bogey on the opening hole, his first of five in six. But | :14:52. | :14:59. | |
with a much better back nine he managed to keep himself in | :15:00. | :15:07. | |
contention, just. A big day in the Tour de France, arguably the | :15:08. | :15:10. | |
biggest, the last day in the Alps in the last chance that any of the | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
contenders to get the yellow jersey from Chris Froome. They didn't | :15:14. | :15:23. | |
manage it. He has just about done it? Very much so. If you were a | :15:24. | :15:29. | |
betting man you would say he is pretty much over the line, a very | :15:30. | :15:33. | |
happy defending champion in the shape of Chris Froome after stage | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
18. The Team Sky rider taking that giant step towards what would have | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
been an incredible fourth Tour de France title. 23 seconds adrift of | :15:42. | :15:56. | |
the Brit in second place. The second stage when at this year and he just | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
needs to cross the line on Sunday to be confirmed King of the Mountains. | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
Mean while this is how it looks. Fear to see the final day in the | :16:07. | :16:17. | |
mountains is probably Bardet's last realistic chance to catch Chris | :16:18. | :16:21. | |
Froome but they didn't do it. Chris Froome is expected to extend his | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
advantage, so it looks like another title in the offing and with a | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
fourth win in five years in the oldest and most prestigious of | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
cycling tours, he is continuing to write his name in the history books. | :16:37. | :16:43. | |
Some other things to talk about, the women's World Cup in cricket, do we | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
have the final line-up? And England - in the final after the Indians | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
beat defending champions Australia by 36 runs. Victory very much set up | :16:53. | :17:00. | |
by an astonishing innings, 20 boundaries and seven sixes on her | :17:01. | :17:08. | |
way to a mammoth. The final is on Sunday, brilliant year to sell it, | :17:09. | :17:11. | |
England have only lost one match at this competition, against India in | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
the opening games promises to be a cracker. And an update on the | :17:16. | :17:24. | |
women's euros? Two-time champions Norway on the brink of elimination | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
after a surprise 2-0 defeat by Belgium. They have got to beat | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
Denmark now but the hosts themselves have kept their 100% record. They | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
are looking good for the knockout stages. Thanks very much. Much more | :17:39. | :17:50. | |
sport to come. A few months ago, some really sad news came in from | :17:51. | :18:00. | |
Los Angeles. About the lead singer of Linkin Park. We will speak to | :18:01. | :18:08. | |
Steve Holden of Radio 1, the lead singer of Linkin Park dying at the | :18:09. | :18:20. | |
age of 41. The government has been accused of betraying passengers | :18:21. | :18:22. | |
after shelving plans to electrify major railways in Wales and the | :18:23. | :18:31. | |
Midlands. It has been beset by delays and after years of wrangling | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
finally cancelled. Today an angry response from the region's | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
politicians. There were clear promises made, not just that it | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
might happen. Communities are promised, MPs were promised, the | :18:46. | :18:50. | |
Secretary of State for Transport should come to their toes and | :18:51. | :18:52. | |
explain to each and every of us and each and every one of these | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
communities why it is that he has gone back on this promise. The | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
criticism crosses party lines. We were promised five years ago the | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
whole line would be electrified and we have many thousands using these | :19:07. | :19:10. | |
services every day. Millions of people moving into this part of the | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
world. They want good, reliable train services are now we will get | :19:17. | :19:19. | |
some improvements but not everything. It is hard to find any | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
business people are politicians in the East Midlands and entirely happy | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
about today's announcement. The government insists it is the best | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
way forward for passengers. This promotional video argues the new | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
hybrid trains will lead to faster and more comfortable journeys. | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
Ministers say there is no more no need for the travel disruption that | :19:42. | :19:49. | |
electrification would have caused. It reflects how advances in | :19:50. | :19:53. | |
technology are enabling a different approach that is less disruptive to | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
passengers and the communities. Business leaders will take some | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
convincing. They have to carry both diesel and electric powertrains and | :20:06. | :20:07. | |
therefore they are slower to accelerate and brake and therefore | :20:08. | :20:12. | |
perhaps feels like they might be getting you were serviced and we | :20:13. | :20:15. | |
have now. And what of the wider economic impact? Will Ross at used | :20:16. | :20:21. | |
as the line every day between his home in Leicester and his job in | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
Nottingham. It is yet another example of short-term cost savings | :20:27. | :20:34. | |
being placed before a long-term economic and environmental benefit. | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
Some say the East Midlands is a forgotten region and on the last day | :20:38. | :20:41. | |
of parliament before summer this announcement seems an afterthought. | :20:42. | :20:51. | |
The lead story is that OJ Simpson has been granted early release by a | :20:52. | :21:02. | |
parole board after serving nine of a 33 year jail sentence for armed | :21:03. | :21:09. | |
robbery. Let me show you this tweet from Paul Rose, from the Royal | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
geographical Society. I thought it would be there. He is telling us | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
plastic pollution risks near permanent position of our natural | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
environment. That is a response to a US report today estimating that | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
since the 1950s human beings are produced more than 8 billion tonnes | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
of plastic. Any number of ways we could try to illustrate how much | :21:33. | :21:35. | |
that is but it is enough to cover Argentina. An awful lot. One of the | :21:36. | :21:42. | |
multiple problems were told us plastic is that for one we to use a | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
lot of it only once and throw it away. What can individuals do send | :21:47. | :21:52. | |
response? This is a plastics specialist. The individual consumer | :21:53. | :21:59. | |
can take our own coffee cups, we can bring our own bags to the | :22:00. | :22:04. | |
supermarket. We can shop in places that provide the products in | :22:05. | :22:08. | |
accordance with our values. If we don't want a lot of packaging we can | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
buy in bulk and support the manufacturers that are making the | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
decisions that support the values that we have, so vote and choose | :22:17. | :22:22. | |
with your wallet. I think we can make very smart consumer decisions | :22:23. | :22:29. | |
and it is important to dig deep and ask the right questions and check in | :22:30. | :22:32. | |
and validate the information from the manufacturers and the inverse De | :22:33. | :22:37. | |
Smet is we are seeing, but there are many things that each and everyone | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
of us do, and that is a real difference with the plastic | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
pollution problem. It is a solvable, tractable problem that each and | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
everyone of us can make decisions on that be effective. | :22:50. | :22:51. | |
Forensic experts in Spain are exhuming the body of Salvador Dali. | :22:52. | :22:54. | |
It's to extract DNA for a paternity test. | :22:55. | :22:56. | |
That's happening because a woman in her sixties says her mother had | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
In the mid-19 60s this was an abandoned theatre that Salvador Dali | :23:00. | :23:14. | |
identified as the perfect place to show off all his artworks but not | :23:15. | :23:20. | |
just that, to create the ultimate Salvador Dali experience, which he | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
ended up liking so much he decided to be buried here. So when he died | :23:24. | :23:34. | |
in 1989 his body was embalmed and placed in a coffin and he was buried | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
here in this theatre museum just beneath the old stage. This memorial | :23:39. | :23:44. | |
stone want to be disturbed by the excavation. It's decided the best | :23:45. | :23:53. | |
way to access it is from above. This is the entry point, a 1.5 tonne and | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
Mark stolen which will be eased aside and the coffin opened and a | :23:59. | :24:06. | |
sample taken. It is a process they reckon Baltic pretty much all night. | :24:07. | :24:12. | |
